Hello,
 
I recently upgraded to the EVGA RTX 2080 TI XC Ultra and love it.  I came from dual GTX 1080's on SLI.  I do have one new issue after upgrading the card that is bugging me.  From a cold boot (completely off) my computer boots but my monitor remains on a black screen.  I have to hit the reset button to get it to recycle and then it will get past the bios splash screen and load into windows.  I have a X34 Predator G-Sync monitor overclocked to 120mhz.  It has been  working flawlessly on my old set-up.
 
I have googled this and there seem to be a bunch of different solutions but none have worked.  I tried change the power saving options on the monitor and have tried unplugging and powering down my g-sync monitor to reset it.  Neither worked.  Once booted it works fine.  Like I said this issue started with the new card.  It almost seems like a windows thing.
 
My set-up is in my signature.  Any input or assistance would be appreciated.
